As the global youth population reaches a historic high hearing the youth becomes more important than ever. When young people aren't recognized for who they are, don't have their talents and views acknowledged, they may act out or collapse inward. Or they may just give you an odd grin and carry on having the best time of their lives.
Do you remember those days? In its last year of being a teenager, the 19th European Union Film Festival in India invites you to do that through a collection of 19 award-winning movies showcasing different stories of youth and the young. It's a collection of dreams and passion, fear and frustration, fun and joy, mistakes and recognition - all things old and young for both the young and not-so-young.
Brought to you by the Delegation of the European Union to India, embassies of member states of the European Union and organised with the helping hand of many local partners, the festival will travel from February until July 2014 from New Delhi to Bangalore, Chandigarh, Chennai, Goa, Jodhpur, Hyderabad, Pune, Mumbai and Kolkata.
All films will be screened in national languages of member states of the European Union, with English subtitles. Among them there are languages like Hungarian, Irish, Danish and Lithuanian - many of which the viewer may hear for the first time. Better than anything, all films portray Europe's fascinating diversity and its rich cinema tradition.
Entry to the festival is free, with seating on first-come, first-served basis.
